(CLI)

Evolving mixed-media requirements for 10Mb and 100Mb fiber, copper, and

1000Mb Gigabit Ethernet can be simply and reliably handled by the Magnum 6K32F Series products.

The port flexibility feature is achieved using a large family of 6K modules with

various copper and fiber capabilities built-in. High fiber port density is achieved using Small Form Factor LC or MTRJ connectors and multimode and single-mode fiber networks from 2 to over 100km are accommodated. Each module can support up to 8 ports of fiber or RJ-45 copper connectors as well as various fiber and copper combinations. Fixed one and two Gigabit fiber and copper modules are available along with modules for use with GBIC and SFP fiber and copper transceivers making this product adaptable to almost any network need. Modules are factory configured in a base chassis (or may be changed in the field by trained technicians) to adapt the unit to the user’s specific Ethernet media requirements.

The strong aluminum case and wide selection of power-input options

including -48VDC, 24VDC, 125/110 VDC, 250VDC and universal 110/240VAC target the Magnum 6K32F Series for heavy-duty applications. The chassis rack mounting style of the 6K32FR / FRC is “Reverse” (with the ports and LEDs and the power-input and the management console connector all in the rear and a duplicate set of LEDs in the front). Rack widths accommodated include standard 19” RETMA, ETSI, and 23” Telco. The

www GarrettCom com

Magnum 6K32F/FR/FC/FRC Managed Switch Installation and User Guide (05/08) AC, and –48VDC power input options are designed for Telco environments, while the 24VDC is designed for Industrial/Control Room applications. The 125 & 250VDC versions are for power sub stations applications.

Designed primarily for use in harsh, un-controlled temperature industrial

applications, the Magnum 6K32FC / FRC provides secure, high performance plug-andplay hardware operation, 802.1p packet prioritization in hardware, and industry-standard managed networks software functionality with plenty of secure and remote monitoring features, all in convenient 1U rack-mount packages.

2.2.3 Eight-Port Copper Module, 6KP8-RJ45 (MDIX)

The 6K-Series 8-port Copper port module, model 6KP8-RJ45, provides eight 10/100Mb switched RJ-45 ports. The 10/100Mb switched ports normally (as default setting) are indepen N-way auto-negotiating, and autocrossover(MDIX) for operation at 10 or 100Mb speed in full- or halfduplex mode, i.e., each independently selec the other end of the twisted pair cable.

(See Section 4.3 for auto-negotiation and MDIX details). The auto-crossover feature will automatically determine the other side of the connection to make the connection, and eliminate the need of a cross-over cable.

On the model 6KP8-RJ45 module, there are four LEDs for each port, two in

the connector and two separate. The LK (Link) LED indicates “ready for operation” on that port when lit. The blinking ACT (Activity) LED indicates receiving Activity on that port when lit. The 10/100 LED indicates operation at 100Mb speed when ON and at 10 Mb speed when OFF (when auto-negotiation is not disabled). The FDX/HDX LED is ON to indicate full-duplex operation and OFF to indicate half-duplex mode.

2.2.3a PoE(Power Inside), model PI6KP8-45RJ (MDIX), 8-port 10/100Mb

The New PoE RJ-45 ports act similar to regular RJ-45 ports, except they have capability of providing power on each port to power up the PD devices, per the IEEE802.3af PoE standard. Only 4 x RJ-45 (10/100) ports max. support POE(Power Inside) option in one rack mounted 6K-unit. The power inside PoE option is factory configured and equipped with the necessary power option to support four 802.3af PoE pd devices. The 4-RJ45 POE module are also available with mix –n-match with fiber modules. Please check the ordering information Sec.1.2. for all the various PI6K PoE modules option.

The LEDs on 6KP8-RJ45- PoE module are slightly different compared to

regular (non-PoE) RJ-45 modules as shown in Fig 2. When the PoE port is in use, the PoE LED is ON when connected properly to an 803.af compliant PD device on that port. When non-PoE devices are connected, the PoE LED is OFF. Operation of Ethernet data traffic is not affected by PoE.

LINK and ACTIVITY LEDS are combined on the PoE modules into one LED

that is marked as LINK/ACT, as shown in the diagram.

2.2.3b PoE(Power Pass-through), model P6KP8-RJ45 (MDIX), 10/100Mb 8-port

The PoE (Power-pass-through) RJ-45 ports act similar to regular RJ-45 ports,

except they have capability of providing power on each port to power up the PD devices, per the IEEE802.3af PoE standard. The Power Pass-through PoE modules are totally dependent upon the powerful -48VDC input power supply to support more RJ-45 (10/100) ports. Each port requires at least 15watts to power up the PoE PD devices max. One PoE module can be configured in the A, B, C or D slot of any 6K s with

-48vdc power input. The PoE modules are also available with mix & match fiber

2.2.4 Six-Port “4 + 2”Combo Modules, 4@ 10/100 RJ-45 and 2@100Mb fiber (ST or SC)

The combo six-port modules are combinations of copper and fiber media,

available as four 10/100 switched RJ-45 copper ports and two 100Mb switched multimode fiber ST, SC or single mode SC or Long Reach SC ports. For ports numbering, ports 1,3,5,7 are copper, ports 2 and 6 are fiber, ports 4 and 8 are not present.

The four RJ-45 ports operate just like the 8-port copper module with the auto-

cross (MDIX) feature to eliminate the use of cross-over cables, and the two fiber ports operate at 100Mbps full-duplex (default). User mode control per port through the MNS software is also the same.

On Magnum “4+2” Combo modules, there are four LED’s for each RJ-45 port,

which indicate status the same as described for the 6KP8-RJ45 in Section 2.2.3 above. The fiber port’s LEDs indicate status the same way as described for the SFF fiber modules in Section 2.2.2 above. Color-coding on the panel of the module shows which LEDs belong to which port.

The Magnum Combo six-port modules are also available with 4@ MTRJ

100Mb mm SFF fiber and 2@10Mb fiber mm ST ports, and with 4@ RJ45 10/100 copper and 2@10Mb fiber mm ST ports.

The 4@ RJ-45 + 2@ 10 Mb ST operation of the SFF fiber and the RJ-45 half

of the module is as described for those port types above. For detailed information about 10Mb mm ST fiber half of the module, see Section 2.2.5.

Magnum 6K32F/FR/FC/FRC Managed Switch Installation and User Guide (05/08)

2.2.5 Four-Port 10 Mb mm Fiber ST Modules

The 4port @10Mb ST fiber modules behave the same as the 8@100Mb ST

fiber modules except for the 10Mb speed. For port numbering, ports 1, 2, 5, 6 are present, ports 3, 4, 7, 8 are not present. The default setup on the 10Mb fiber module is halfduplex, which allows the Magnum 6K32F Series Switch to connect to any 10Mb hub or media converter or almost any other device with a 10Mb fiber Ethernet port. User mode control per port through the MNS software is the same as the other 6K32F Series modules. The fiber ports support fiber cabling distances according to the 10BASE-FL standard, i.e., 2km distance for multi-mode fiber. (Single-mode for up to 10Km distance may be available as a special order configuration).

2.2.6 Gigabit (1000Mbps) port modules

The Magnum 6K32F Series switches offer wide options for Gigabit speed with multiple choices for the modular slot. The new Magnum 6K32F Series can be configured with eight Gigabit ports (copper or Fiber) maximum. The Gigabit port option for the modular slot comes in a couple of different configurations. The two Gigabit port modules have been offered as GBPM-2OTX (fiber or RJ-45), whereas the single Gigabit module comes in flavors of G+4(10/100 RJ-45 ports) or G+2 (100Mb fiber ports) as shown below in the figure.

1@ 1000Mb Fiber SC + 2@ 100Mb SC 1@ 1000Mb Fiber SC + 4@10/ 100Mb The 6K32F Series modules provide a GBIC opening for insertion of industry-standard GBICs to provide Gigabit (Gb) media flexibility. GBIC models are available for both multi-mode (550m) and single-mode (10, 25, 40, 70, 120)km fiber options, and for Gigabit copper as well with new models appearing often.

Quality of Service means providing consistent predictable data delivery to

users from datagram paths that go all across a network. As a LAN device, the Mag 6K32F Series can do its part to prevent any Q Ethernet

standard and fulfills its role in support of QOS, giving packet processing priority to priority tagged packets according to the 802.1p standard. In addition to hardware suppor for QOS, the MNS software (R3) supports two priority queues that can be shared across the eight levels of defined packet priorities fo user through software configuration settings.

The "cut-through" technique permits collision fragment frames (which are a result of late collisions) to be forwarded which add to the network traffic. Since there is no way to filter frames with a bad CRC (the entire fr must be present in order for CRC to be calculated), the result of indiscriminate cutthrough forwarding is greater traffic congestion, especially at peak activity. Since collisions and bad packets are more likely when traffic is heavy, the result of store-andforward operation load is t. greates

2.3 Features and Benefits

 Managed switching for high performance Ethernet LANs Magnum 6K32F Series Switches provide non-blocking (all ports can run at full speed

at once) performance with standard Managed Networks Software (MNS-6K) included. They are typically used in LAN traffic centers with 24 10/100Mb ports or one or two Gigabit ports for backbone connections where managed network services are desired.

 Switching services includes 802.1p QoS packet prioritization The Magnum 6K32F Series switching hardware supports QoS, giving packet

processing priority to priority tagged packets according to the IEEE 802.1p standard. For port- and application-specific priorities, the QoS software may be configured by the user.

 Features Fiber-Built-In

Magnum 6K32F Series Managed Switches are designed with modular slots to

naturally include fiber ports and support mixes of the following; multi-mode and single-mode; 10 Mb, 100Mb and 1000Mb speed; full-and half-duplex; and classic Small Form Factor (SFF) and GBIC fiber connectors. RJ-45 10/100 ports can also be configured in the mix of port types.

 Modular design for port flexibility, in a 1U space-saving rack-mount package The 1U Magnum 6K32F Series chassis has 4 slots for port configurations. A family of

2, 4, 6 or 8 port modules allows the user to select the desired mix of port types and speeds. There are over 20 different modules in the family to choose from. The port modules are normally factory installed and tested, but may be changed in the field.

 Rack-mounting may be standard or “reverse”, 19 inch or ETSI or 23” Telco The standard rack mounting provides Ethernet ports and status LEDs in front, service

connections (power input and management console) in the rear. “Reverse” rack mounting provides status LEDs in front and all cabling connections in the rear. Standard 19’ rack mount brackets are included, with ETSI and 23” Telco optional.

2.4 Applications

Magnum 6K32F Series Fiber Switches offer high performance along with four modular slot options to fulfill the choice of copper/Fiber, 10,100 or 1000Mb requirements. The 6K32F Series also offers MNS-6K management software loaded with multiple useful features. The Magnum IEC61850 6K32F Series Switches are used in a variety of Power sub-stations applications including, Industrials and temp. un-controlled, secure VLAN- performance upgrades to departmental networks, and LAN traffic centers that require Gigabit backbone services. The performance characteristic of the 6K32F Series Switches enables them to inter-connect a series of subnets (one subnet per 6K32F Switch port) in a LAN traffic center. The subnet connections may be via fiber or twisted pair cabling, 100Mbps or 10 Mbps speed, and full-or half-duplex mode. The mixed-media capability in the modular slot is ideal for upgrading existing Ethernet LAN networks where existing cabling must be accommodated. The fiber-builtin media capability provides future-proof fiber cabling for the LAN structure. The secured management features offer a multiple options to provide a secure Network solution.

Example 1 : Magnum 6K32F Series Switch for a VLAN application

Equipped with lots of advanced management features, the Magnum 6K32F

Series Managed switch is able to handle a VLAN application and provide security and performance in an Ethernet network center. A secure VLAN-enabled network is simply an administratively-configured broadcast domain. The network administrator determines which ports and nodes are in which broadcast domains by setting membership profiles for each of them. The Magnum 6K32F’s VLAN capability can be configured in two types of virtual LANs; Port-based VLANs and Tag-based VLANs. In an office environment where departments such as Finance, Engineering, R&D, and Marketing need to each keep a secure LAN, the 6K32F’s VLAN feature will prevent traffic cross-over among traffic domains and thus keep sensitive data and information controlled. The Managed Magnum 6K32F Series equipped with VLAN capability is ideal for any application where a secure VLAN to multiple departments is needed.

The modularity of the 6K32F Series Managed Switch makes it an attractive

choice for use in applications with LAN connections to an organization’s multiple site offices. The different offices can be easily connected together with the Fiber ports supported by the Magnum 6K32F Switch. A main NT-server in a secure area protected from earthquake or fire hazards can be connected to one or two full duplex Gigabit Fiber ports.

Full-duplex future proof fiber media can easily connect long distance subnets

and provide a stable secure network to all applications. The SNMP management capability of the Magnum 6K32F Series Switch helps create a database of all the network subnets to easily manage the network. Secure web-based management is also included, with authentication and encryption to keep out even determined trouble-makers.

Example 2.

In another Telecommunications storage data application, a secure managed switch is required to provide an Ethernet backbone for a diversified network with multiple subnets. The backbone consists of high speed LAN segments supported by

1000Mbps full-duplex future-proof fiber media to provide secure long distance LAN connections. The entire network is sharing a higher bandwidth Gigabit-enabled datamining server for the vital database located in a separate secured building. The copper ports are required for multiple subnets inside the building. The entire spread network is

Example 3 Redundant Application

In a redundant application for high network availability where a rack-

mountable managed switch with over 24 ports is required with dense port features, Magnum 6K32F’s equipped with redundant LAN features like S-Ring, RSTP, Link-LossLearn and various security features are easily qualified for the application. The -48V input power option with Dual Source is especially useful in telecom central offices. The Magnum 6K32F Series with two Gigabit ports in a modular slot allows it to connect into a Gigabit mesh structure with an RSTP and S-Ring combination used in a no-single-point-of-failure self-healing LAN topology along with a ring of multiple 6K at the edge to allow the system to efficiently recover from a fault in the network. industry standard Rapid Spanning Tree Protocol 802.1d is used in the top eight switches (see diagram below) to perform GB mesh fault recovery, whereas the bottom ring setup has been .

3.0 Installation

Before installing the equipment, it is necessary to take the following precautions:

1.) If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack

assembly, the environmental temperature around the equipment must be less than or equal to 60C for 6K32F Series Switches.

2.) If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack

assembly, adequate airflow must be maintained for proper and safe operation.

3.) If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack

system, placement of the equipment must not load unevenly or overload the rack system.

4.) If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack

assembly, verify the equipment’s power requirements to prevent overloading of the building/s electrical circuits.

5.) If the equipment is mounted in an enclosed or multiple rack

assembly verify that the equipment has a reliable and uncompromised earthing path.

6.)

24vdc, -48vdc, and 125vdc must be installed in restricted

access locations.

7.)

CB-Circuit breaker of 10Amps should shown on top of Rack.

This section describes installation of the Magnum 6K32F Series Switches, as well as connection of the various Ethernet media types.

3.1 Locating Magnum 6K32F Series Switches

The location of a Magnum 6K32F Switch is dependent on the physical layout of the network. Typically the Switch is placed in a central wiring location where groups of network devices need to be connected in order to communicate with each other. These Switches are typically rack mounted in a wiring closet see Section 3.3.2 below), but because they have rubber feet they can also be installed on a shelf or table top unit. The compact size allows it to be easily placed in an office or lab area, and it can also be either shelf of wall-mounted (see Section 3.3.1 below). Locate an AC receptacle that is within six feet (2 meters) of the intended Magnum 6K32F site. The rugged metal case of the Magnum 6K32F Series will normally protect it from accidental damage in a lab or workplace setting. Maintain an open view of the front to visually monitor the status LEDs. Keep an open area around the unit so that cooling can occur from the small fans (6K32F / FR) on the left side while the unit is in operation.

3.2 Connecting Ethernet Media

The Magnum 6K32F Series Switches are specifically designed to

support all standard Ethernet media types within a single Switch unit. This is accomplished by using a family of different port Modules which can be individually selected and configured per-port. See Section 2.4 for a description of the PMs.

The various media types supported along with the corresponding IEEE

802.3 and 802.3u standards and connector types are as follows:

3.2.1 Connecting Fiber Optic ST-type, “twist-lock”

The following procedure applies to installations using a PM with ST-type fiber

connectors. This procedure applies to ports using a 6K32F Series module, MSTtype port.

1. Before connecting the fiber optic cable, remove the protective dust caps from the tips of the connectors on the PM. Save these dust caps for future use.

2. Wipe clean the ends of the dual connectors with a soft cloth or lint-free lens tissue

dampened in alcohol. Make certain the connectors are clean before connecting.

Note: One strand of the duplex fiber optic cable is coded using color bands at regular intervals; you must use the color-coded strand on the associated ports at each end of the fiber optic segment.

3. Connect the Transmit (TX) port (light colored post) on the Magnum PM to the Receive (RX) port of the remote device. Begin with the color-coded strand of the cable for this first TX-to-RX connection.

www GarrettCom com

Magn m 6K32F/FR/FC/FRC Managed Switch Installation and User Guide (05/08) u

4. Connect the Receive (RX) port (dark colored post on the PM) to the Transmit (TX) port of the remote device. Use the non-color coded fiber strand for this.

5. The LINK LED on the front of the PM will illuminate when a proper connection has been established at both ends (and when power is ON in the unit). If LINK is not lit after the cable is connected, the normal cause is improper cable polarity. Swap the fiber cables at the PM connector to try to remedy this situation.

3.2.2 Connecting Fiber Optic SC-type

The following procedure applies to installations using a PM with SC-type fiber connectors, i.e., using 6K-MSC or 6K-SSC (single mode) etc. When connecting fiber media to SC connectors, simply snap the two square male connectors into the SC female jacks of the 6KPM until they click and are secure.

, "Snap-In"

3.2.3 Connecting Single-Mode Fiber Optic

When using single-mode fiber cable, be sure to use single-mode fiber port connectors. Single-mode fiber cable has a smaller diameter than multi-mode fiber cable (9/125 microns for single-mode, 50/125 or 62.5/125 microns for multi-mode where xx/xx are the diameters of the core and the core plus the cladding respectively). Single-mode fiber allows full bandwidth at longer distances, and may be used to connect 10 Mb nodes up to 10 Km apart, or 18Km with the 6K-SSC.

The same procedure for multi-mode fiber applies to single-mode fiber connectors. Follow the steps listed in Section 3.2.2 above.

3.2.4 Connecting Twisted Pair (RJ-45,CAT3, CAT5, Unshielded or

Shielded)

The RJ-45 ports of the Magnum 6K32F Series can be connected to the following two media types: 100BASE-TX and 10BASE-T. CAT 5 cables should be used when making 100BASE-TX connections. When the ports are used as 10BASE-T ports, CAT 3 may be used. In either case, the maximum distance for unshielded twisted pair cabling is 100 meters (328 ft).

shielded, either unshielded or shielded cables and wiring may be used.

2. Connect the other end of the cable to the corresponding device

3. Use the LINK LED to ensure proper connectivity by noting that the LED will be illuminated when the unit is powered and proper connection is established

NOTE: for Power Substations

advises that, for substation applications, the RJ-45 ports are intended for connectivity to other communication equipment such as routers or telecommunication multiplexers installed in close proximity (i.e., less than 2 meters or 6.5ft) to the 6K32. It is not recommended to use these ports in substation applications to interface to field devices across distances which could produce high (greater than 2500V ) levels of ground potential rise (GPR) during line-to-ground fault conditions. The 6K32 passes the 1613specifications for zero packet loss with fiber ports & with RJ45 ports used as indicated here.

3.2.5 Connecting Twisted Pair (CAT-5e or better, Unshielded or Shielded)

The RJ-45 1000BASE-TX Gigabit ports of the Magnum 6K32F Series can be

connected via copper media with the following minimum specifications; 1000BASE-T, CAT-5e, or for better results, 100-ohm UTP shielded twisted pair (STP) balanced cable. The CAT-5e or the more effective 100-ohm UTP shielded twisted pair (STP) balanced cable is recommended when making 1000BASE-TX connections. In either case, the maximum distance for unshielded twisted pair cabling is 100 meters (328 ft).

3.3 Table-Top or Shelf Mounting

The Magnum 6K32F Series Managed Switches can be easily mounted on a

table-top or any suitable horizontal surface. They have four rubber feet to provide stability without scratching finished surfaces.

3.3.1 Rack-mounting (for 19” RETMA racks) Magnum 6K32F & 6K32FC

Installation of a Magnum 6K32F & 6K32FC Fiber Switch in a 19” rack is a

simple procedure. The units are 1U (1.70”) high. When properly installed, the frontmounted LED status indicators should be in plain view and easy to read. Rack-mount installation requires special 19” rack-mounted brackets and screws (included with each Magnum 6K32F & 6K32FC unit). These brackets attach to the front sides of the Switch (regular package, not the Reverse version), which is then typically fastened into a standard 19” RETMA rack as shown here.

Fig 3.3.1 Dual Side Mountings for 6K32F Series

The 23” brackets and the ETSI (European metric, approx.

21”) brackets are also available (optional) for rack-mounting the Magnum 6K32F & 6K32FC Switches. These brackets are popular in the Telco industry where they are a standard for Central Office rack-mounting purposes. The 23” and the ETSI brackets are mainly used for larger equipment.

These brackets are rack-mounted in a frame typically accessed in operation

from both sides.

The bracket mounting holes in the sides of the Magnum 6K32F & 6K32FC

permits it to be mounted in various ways. The same holes fit all three types (19”, ETSI, and 23”) of brackets. The mounting for the 23” is illustrated in Figure 3.3.1 below. The brackets may be attached flush with the front, or attached in the center for a set-back mounting which may reduce cabling torque.

Important Note: For adequate convection cooling, always install a 6K32FC switch with a minimum of 1/2U (0.875”) air space above and below.

www GarrettCom com

Magnum 6K32F/FR/FC/FRC Managed Switch Installation and User Guide (05/08)

The optional 23” brackets and the ETSI (21”) brackets each come as a pair in a

package, along with the necessary screws for attaching the brackets to the sides of the Magnum Switch unit. They must be ordered as separate line items.

3.3.2 Rack-mounting, Reverse

version of the Magnum 6K32FR &

6K32FRC

The optional Reverse Magnum 6K32FR/FRC Model has all of the cabling

(Ethernet cabling, power cabling and console port cabling) connectors in the rear, and the status LEDs in the front. The status LEDs that are co-incident with the ports are still present, and a second or dual set of LEDs are used for status visibility in the front of the unit, showing the same data.

There are three options of brackets available to mount in the standard 19”

frame, 23” frame, or ETSI (21”) frame. The 19” brackets are included with each unit, the other two may be purchased as separate options. With each bracket type, there are three different mounting options as shown in Fig. 3.3.2. The case of the Magnum 6K32F has mounting holes prepared for each of the mounting arrangements. Users may choose the mounting arrangement most suitable for their installation.

Important Note: For adequate convection cooling, always install a 6K32FRC switch with a minimum of 1/2U (0.875”) air space above and below.

3.4 Powering the Magnum 6K32F Series Managed Switch

The Magnum 6K32F Series Switches incorporate an internal universal power supply and have a recessed male IEC connector for the AC power cord at the left-rear. A manual power ON-OFF switch is adjacent. A six-foot 115 VAC 60 Hz standard power cord is supplied with each unit shipped within the United States and Canada. The auto-ranging power supply supports installation environments where the AC voltage is from 90 to 260 volts with a power input frequency between 47 and 63 Hz.

www GarrettCom com

Magnum 6K32F/FR/FC/FRC Managed Switch Installation and User Guide (05/08) The 32-port units will consume over 30 watts of power typically. When connecting the

Ethernet cabling, there is no need to power down the unit. Individual segments can be connected or disconnected without concern for AC power-related problems or damage to the unit. Power supply options are available to suit the 6K32F Series Switches to special high-availability communications and/or heavy industrial-grade applications, including: * -48VDC, 24VDC and 125VDC with single DC input, * -48VDC, 24VDC and 125VDC with dual-source DC input, See the Appendices of this manual for more details. Use an RFQ for other variations.

3.4.1 Alarm Contacts for monitoring internal power, and Software Traps

The Alarm Contacts feature, optional on Magnum 6K32F Series, provides two Form C Normally Closed (NC) contacts to which the user can attach two sets of status monitoring wires at the green terminal block. When this option is present, the terminal block for Alarm Contacts is part of the Power Input panel in the Magnum 6K32F case. The AC or DC power input connection is in the same panel. A manual OnOff Switch for power to the unit is not available on 6K32F Series units with the Alarm Contacts option, as these two features occupy the same space in the case.

The first NC Alarm Contact (top position) is a “Software Alarm”, operated by user settings in the MNS-6K software. The user can disable the Software Alarm feature with a software configuration command if desired. When the Software Alarm is enabled, the Form C Normally Closed (NC) contact is held close during normal software operation. A user-defined software malfunction, such as an SNMP Trap, a Software Security violation or an S-Ring Fault, causes the contact to open and thus trigger an alarm in the user’s monitoring system

The second (bottom position) NC Alarm Contact is held close when there is power on the main board inside of the 6K32F. This provides a “Hardware Alarm” because the NC contacts will open when internal power is lost, either from an external power down condition or by the failure of the power supply inside of the Magnum 6K32F Series Switch. Useful info. about Alarm contacts:

1. There are four terminal blocks (1,2,3,4)provided next to the AC/DC power supply

2. The top two pins (1,2) are software operated

3. The bottom two pins (3,4) are hardware operated

4. By default it is NC (normally closed)

5. The software operation needs to be enabled and set to get the Alarm traps. For detailed information about the Software Alarm and software control of SNMP alarm traps, please reference the Magnum MNS-6K Software User Manual. (Chapter 19).

3.5 6K32F Series Port Module (6KPM) Installation

The Magnum 6K32F Series Switches are received from the factory with the customers required 6KPM modules installed. There may be situations where 6KPM cards need to be added or replaced. In cases where a 6KPM module needs to be added in the modular slots, the faceplate for an available front-mounted slot must be removed. The following procedure describes this operation.

3.5.1 Preparation for Installing and Removing 6KPMs

STOP!!!

Be sure the power cord and connections

for all powers single or dual, is unplugged

from the chassis before attempting to remove

and/or replace any PM cards.

Failure to do so may result in damage to the unit

and will void the warranty.

Caution- Avoid Static Discharge: Opening of the 6K32F chassis can only be

performed by trained service persons. The port modules (like most

electronic equipment) are sensitive to static discharge. Use proper ESD

measures when handling port modules. Step 1. Make sure the 6KPM Card package has all necessary accessories to install it

properly. Each 6KPM Card package for field installation contains

(Daughterboard (Bigger) and Granddaughter board (smaller), three 5/8 stand

offs for the Granddaughter board, seven #4-40 Pan-Head screws along with a

Front panel face plate package. The Front panel faceplate package includes the

front panel and four #4-40 Flat-Head screws.

NOTE: Every 6KPM Card package comes with their matching Daughter and

Granddaughter board. The copper 6KPM card should not work properly if

mixed with other Fiber combo 6KPM card packages. Always install the PM

module separately one by one to avoid the mixing.

NOTE for Power Substations

advises that, for substation applications, the serial RJ-45console ports are

intended for temporary connectivity to other equipment such as PCs. Since the

console port connection is temporary, it is excluded from IEEE 1613 packet-

loss testing per the 1613 standard-defined test procedure.

Step 2. Remove Chassis Cover

The Magnum 6K32F chassis are combined with top, bottom and module panel

parts and assembled together with the help of 34 Philips-head screws. First

Remove the side panel (2 screws located on the right side of chassis). Second,

remove the module panel screws (total 16) as shown in the fig 3.5.1a. Third,

remove the top cover screws (16 screws). Once these are removed, the top

cover can be easily pulled off to the front from the chassis base, as shown in

the Fig. 3.4.1b. When the chassis top cover has been removed, the interior of

the unit is exposed.

Magnum 6K32F/FR/FC/FRC Managed Switch Installation and User Guide (05/08)

NOTE:. When leaving 6KPM slots empty, always use a face plate (Magnum 6KMBLNK) to cover the slot opening in the front panel. This will maintain proper cooling air flow, safety, and operation as required by FCC, CE, and other regulations.

Step 6. Now screw down the daughter board with 7 #4-40 screws, except the last two at

the end, so that it holds the daughter board securely. The figure below shows the top view of 6KPM card after successfully installing the 6KPM cards inside the Magnum 6K32F.

Fig. 3.5.2e Top View : 6KPM Module installed inside a 6K32F Series Switch

Step 7. Once the 6KPM cards have been installed, the chassis top cover can be placed

by matching up the two front corners properly and sliding it in until it reaches the rear end and fits properly to match the holes. Make sure the chassis cover is aligned properly before securing the enclosure. Secure the cover with 18 #4-40 screws.

Step 8. Once the installation of cover is done properly, the front panel screen

plates(included with the 6K-modules) need to be properly placed on the front of the chassis cover to complete the installation process.

3.5.3 Removing 6KPM Cards

To properly remove a 6KPM card from the 6K32F Managed Switch, follow the

3 steps below.

Step 1. Remove chassis cover See procedures in Section 3.5.1 above.

Caution: Be sure the power cord is unplugged.

www GarrettCom com

Magnum 6K32F/FR/FC/FRC Managed Switch Installation and User Guide (05/08)

Step 2. Remove retaining screws placed on top for the 6KPM

On the top of the daughter module there are seven retaining screws for each 6KPM card. These screws are used to secure a 6KPM card in position (see Figure 3.5.3a). Remove the three standoffs holding the Granddaughter board with the chassis.

Figure 3.5.3a: Top View – 7 retaining screws shown by arrows

Step 3. Remove 6KPM Card

Carefully and gently pull out the daughter board from the latching connectors, using both hands, gripping the board near the latch-up connectors as shown in Fig. 3.5.3b . If the now empty slot is to remain unused, be sure to install a 6KM-BLNK face plate cover.

Figure 3.5.3b: Removing a 6KPM Card

ollow the step 8 to complete the process successfully.

NOTE

:1. If the modular slot has not being used and moved to other unit, the empty

slot must be covered with Blank cover, to maintain proper air-inflow inside the unit and keep off from dust and other unavoidable substance, otherwise can cause a failure in the Switch.

2. If the PM module in the modular slot is not being installed properly or loose in connection, the MNS-6K management software will not boot-up properly and a error will generate as –{ failed to read register device type (offset 0x1600) on slot “A or B or C or D”}, whichever the slot has been used.

3. Always boot-up the Switch after any new module installation on modular slot to c

onfirm the successful installation, before placing the chassis cover.

4.0 OPERATION

This chapter describes the functions and operation of the Magnum 6K32F Series Switch.

4.1 Switching Functionality

A Magnum 6K32F Series provides switched connectivity at Ethernet wire-

speed among all of its ports. The Magnum 6K32F Series support 10/100Mbs for copper media and 10 or 100Mb separate traffic domains for fiber ports to maximize bandwidth utilization and network performance. All ports can communicate to all other ports in a Magnum 6K32F, but local traffic on a port will not consume any of the bandwidth on any other port.

Magnum 6K32F Series units are plug-and-play devices. There is no software configuring necessary to be done for basic operation at installation or for maintenance. The only hardware configuration settings are user options for an UP-LINK Switch (resides inside the unit) on the 6KP8-RJ45 (modular port). Optional Half / Full duplex mode and 10 or 100Mbps selection for the switched ports must be configured through MNS-6K software per unit as per the requirement. The internal functions of both are described below.

Filtering and Forwarding Each time a packet arrives on one of the switched ports, the decision is taken to

either filter or to forward the packet. Packets whose source and destination addresses are on the same port segment will be filtered, constraining them to that one port and relieving the rest of the network from having to process them. A packet whose destination address is on another port segment will be forwarded to the appropriate port, and will not be sent to the other ports where it is not needed. Traffic needed for maintaining the operation of the network (such as occasional multi-cast packets) are being forwarded to all ports. The Magnum 6K32F Series Switches operate in the store-and-forward switching mode, which eliminates bad packets and enables peak performance to be achieved when there is heavy traffic on the network.

Address Learning All Magnum 6K32F Series units have address table capacities of 4K node

addresses suitable for use in larger networks. They are self-learning, so as nodes are added, removed or moved from one segment to another, the 6K32F Switch automatically keeps up with node locations.

An address-aging algorithm causes least-used addresses to fall out in favor of frequently-used addresses. To reset the address buffer, cycle power down-and-up.

PWR: Power LED, ON when external power is applied to the unit.

LK: Steady ON, Link status for 10 Mbps and 100Mbps operation.

ACT: ON with port activity for 10 Mbps and 100Mbps operation.

F/H: Full / Half duplex LED, ON when the port is running full duplex, OFF

for half duplex.

100/10: Speed LED, ON when the speed is 100Mbps , OFF when the speed is

10 Mbps

4.3 Auto-Cross (MDIX)Auto-negotiation, for 10/100Mbps RJ-45 ports

The 32 RJ-45 ports on Magnum 6K32F Series support auto-cross (MDI or MDIX) in the auto-negotiation mode according to the IEEE 802.3u standard. No crossover cables are needed when connecting the 6K32F’s 10/100 copper ports to other unmanaged switches, legacy hubs, managed switches, media-converters etc. Please note that there can be conditions with managed switches where the switch manager fixes the port settings via software, and the result of the auto-negotiation is changed in the managed switch by the manager commands. In such cases, the 10/100 speed or the F/H mode may be affected, but auto-cross in the 6K32F Series Switches will still work. The auto-cross function can be disabled, if fixed the port at 10 or 100Mb through software..

The Managed Magnum 6K32F Series Fast Ethernet copper ports can be set for either fixed 100Mb speed or N-way auto-negotiation per the IEEE802.3u standard. The selection is made via 6K-MNS software. The factory default setting is for autonegotiation. At 100Mb-fixed speed, the user may select half- or full-duplex mode by 6K-MNS Software for each RJ-45 port separately. For detail information see Section 9 (Port Setup) of Magnum 6K32F Software user guide (MNS-6K) . One frequentlyused application for the Managed 6K32F Switch copper ports is to connect one of them using a fiber media converter to another Switch in the network backbone, or to some other remote 100Mb device. In this case, it is desirable to operate the fiber link at 100Mb speed, and at either half- or full duplex mode depending on the capabilities of the remote device. Standard commercially available Fast Ethernet media converters mostly do not support auto-negotiation properly, and require that the switched port to which they are connected be at 100Mb fixed speed. Attachment to 10/100 auto-negotiation ports typically will not work properly. The 6K32F Series Switch’s RJ-45 ports handle this situation by configuring the ports as per desire through MNS software port settings and can check the port status of each port after the change.

www GarrettCom com

Magnum 6K32F/FR/FC/FRC Managed Switch Installation and User Guide (05/08)

When Magnum 6K32F Series RJ-45 copper ports are set for auto-negotiation and are connected to another auto-negotiating device, there are 4 different speed and F/H modes possible depending on what the other device supports. These are: (1) 100Mb fullduplex, (2) 100Mb half-duplex, (3) 10 Mb full-duplex and (4) 10 Mb half-duplex.

General information -

Auto-negotiation per-port for 802.3u-compliant switches occurs when:

-- the devices at both ends of the cable are capable of operation at either 10

Mb or 100Mb speed and/or in full- or half-duplex mode, and can

send/receive auto-negotiation pulses, and . . .

-- the second of the two connected devices is powered up*, i.e., when

LINK is established for a port, or

-- the LINK is re-established on a port after being lost temporarily.

 NOTE – Some NIC cards only auto-negotiate when the computer system

that they are in is powered up. These are exceptions to the “negotiate at

LINK – enabled” rule above, but may be occasionally encountered.

The auto-negotiation logic will attempt to operate in descending order and will normally arrive at the highest order mode that both devices can support at that time. (Since autonegotiation is potentially an externally controlled process, the original “highest order mode” result can change at any time depending on network changes that may occur). If the device at the other end is not an auto-negotiating device, the 6K32F’s RJ-45 ports will try to detect its idle signal to determine 10 or 100 speed, and will default to halfduplex at that speed per the IEEE standard.

When operating in 100Mb half-duplex mode, cable distances and hop-counts may be limited within that collision domain. The Path Delay Value (PDV) bit-times must account for all devices and cable lengths within that domain. For Magnum 6K32F Series Fast Ethernet switched ports operating at 100Mb half-duplex, the bit time delay is 50BT.

4.4 Flow-control, IEEE 802.3x standard

Magnum 6K32F Series Switches incorporate a flow-control mechanism for

Full-Duplex mode. The purpose of flow-control is to reduce the risk of data loss if a long burst of activity causes the switch to save frames until its buffer memory is full. This is most likely to occur when data is moving from a 100Mb port to a 10 Mb port and the 10Mb port is unable to keep up. It can also occur when multiple 100Mb ports are attempting to transmit to one 100Mb port, and in other protracted heavy traffic situations.

Magnum 6K32F Series Switches implement the 802.3x flow control (non-

www GarrettCom com

Magnum 6K32F/FR/FC/FRC Managed Switch Installation and User Guide (05/08) blocking) on Full-Duplex ports, which provides for a “PAUSE” packet to be transmitted

to the sender when the packet buffer is nearly filled and there is danger of lost packets. The transmitting device is commanded to stop transmitting into the 6K32F’s Switch port for sufficient time to let the Switch reduce the buffer space used. When the available free-buffer queue increases, the Switch will send a “RESUME" packet to tell the transmitter to start sending the packets. Of course, the transmitting device must also support the 802.3x flow control standard in order to communicate properly during normal operation. Note: When in Half-Duplex mode, the 6K32F’s Switch implements a back-pressure algorithm on 10/100 Mb ports for flow control. That is, the switch prevents frames from entering the device by forcing a collision indication on the half-duplex ports that are receiving. This temporary “collision” delay allows the available buffer space to improve as the switch catches up with the traffic flow.

5.0 Magnum 6K32F Series Managed Switch Port Modules

This chapter describes each Port Module (PM), including appearance,

functionality, and status displays.

5.1 Inspecting the Package and Product

capability for copper ports, the 6 or 8-port interfaces are designed to support all

standard Ethernet media types at 10 or 100Mps speed. Each 6K32F PM can

provide two, four, six or eight ports for connecting Ethernet segments with its

individual connector type and media.

For a list of 6K32F Series Port Module types, refer to Section 1.2

B2.0 -48VDC, 24VDC and 125VDC POWER, THEORY OF OPERATION

The -48VDC, 24VDC and 125VDC power options are designed using diodes inside on each DC power input line behind the two external power connection terminals, so that the power from an external source can only flow into the hub. This allows the Switch to operate only whenever DC power is correctly applied to the two inputs. It protects the Switch from incorrect DC input connections. An incorrect polarity connection, for example, will neither affect the Switch, its internal power supply, nor will it blow the fuse in the internal power supply. The manual power “On-Off” Switch (optional) is used for powering the unit on and off when it is placed into or taken out of service.

B3.0 APPLICATIONS FOR DC POWERED SWITCHES

Magnum 6K32F Series Fiber Switches are easily installed in a variety of applications where -48VDC, 24VDC and 125VDC power is used as the primary power source. The- 48VDC, 24VDC and 125VDC power configuration provides an Ethernet networking solution utilizing a special power supply in a Managed Switch. The –48VDC solution is particularly useful in the telecommunication industry, where it is common for facilities to operate on -48VDC power. Such companies include regular and wireless telephone service providers, Internet Service Providers (ISPs) and other communication companies. In addition, many high availability equipment services, such as broadcasters, publishers, newspaper operations, brokerage firms and other facilities often use a battery backup system to maintain operations in the event of a power failure. It is also frequently used for computer system backup, management and operations monitoring equipment. The 24VDC and 125VDC solution are particularly useful in the Industrial environment, where it is common facilities to operate on 24VDC or 125VDC power. The 125VDC solution is mainly used in power utilities, such as electrical substations, electrical generating plants, etc. The 24VDC applications are mainly in the Industrial environment, such as factory floor, HVAC equipment, military equipment, etc.

B4.0 INSTALLATION

This section describes the installation of the -48 VDC, 24VDC and 125VDC

power source leads to the -48 VDC, 24VDC and 125VDC power terminal block on the Magnum 6K32F’s.(see photo at right). In this picture, the

-48VDC terminal block on the Magnum 6K32F Series is located on the rear of the unit and is equipped with three (3) screwdown lead posts. It is similar for 24VDC and 125VDC options on Magnum 6K32F Series. The leads are identified as negative (-), positive (+), and chassis ground (GND). The actual connection procedure is very straightforward. Simply connect the leads to the Magnum unit, beginning with ground. Ensure that each lead is securely tightened.

Note: The GND should be hooked up first. The 6K32F unit has a floating ground, so the user may elect to Ground either + or - terminal to suit the customer’s use. Before connecting hot lines to the Terminal Block of –48VDC, 24VDC or 125VDC, always use a digital voltmeter to measure the output voltage of the power supply and determine the lead which is more “+ve potential”. The more “+ve” voltage lead from 48V or –48V supply must be connected to the post labeled “+”.

An ON-OFF manual switch is optional for DC power. This can be used to cut off power connections and as a RESET for the Magnum 6K32F Series Switch.

Magnum 6K32F/FR/FC/FRC Managed Switch Installation and User Guide (05/08) C3.0 DUAL-SOURCE OPTION, THEORY OF OPERATION

The Dual-Source DC power option is designed using diodes inside of the chassis on each DC power input line. A diode is placed in each of the four input lines (behind the four external power connection terminals) so that power from an external source can only flow into the unit. This allows the unit to operate whenever DC power is correctly applied to either or both of the two inputs

C4.0 FEATURES AND BENEFITS OF THE DUAL-SOURCE DESIGN

a) The Switch unit can receive power from either input, “A” or “B”. The hub will

normally draw its power from the DC source with the highest voltage at a given time.

b) The Switch unit will not allow power to flow from a higher voltage input to a lower

voltage input, i.e. the two DC power sources are not mixed together by the hub.

c) When one correct DC input is present, the Switch will receive power if the other DC

input is absent, or even if it is connected with reverse polarity or shorted or grounded.

d) Reverse polarity connections, if they should accidentally occur on either input, will

not damage the Switch or power supply internally (nor will it blow the fuse in the internal power supply) because of the blocking action of the diodes. This is true even if one input connection is reversed while the Switch is operating from the other source.

e) The Switch will not receive power (and will not work) when both inputs are

simultaneously absent or are both incorrectly connected.

C5.0 INSTALLATION

This section describes the proper connection of the -48VDC, 24VDC and 125VDC dual source leads to the -48VDC, 24VDC 7 125VDC power terminal block on the Magnum 6Ks Switch (shown in Figure ) The -48VDC terminal block on the Magnum 6K32F Series Switch, as shown in Fig C5.0 is located on the right rear of the unit and is equipped with five (5) screw-down lead posts. If it is the reverse model it is located on the left rear. The primary terminals are identified as positive (A+), negative (A-), and the secondary power terminals as negative (B-), positive(B+). The chassis “earth” or ground (GND) is a threaded post with a #6 nut. The Dual Source terminal block for the 24VDC and 125VDC are similar.
